Definitions

  • the engagement members are In the form of cup-shaped depressions in the web portions 8 and 9, respectively of the base portion 4 and the locking portion 5, these cup-shaped formations having an inner defining surface which is substantially complementary ' to the surface of the ball of the hitch 1 and preferably also the upper portion of the shaft 2.
  • a clamping device 13 which acts between these portions and which, in " its activated, locked position, powerfully draws the base portion and the locking portion towards one another so that extreme clamping force is generated against the ball hitch 1 and preferably also against the upper portion of the shaft 2.
  • the clamping device 13 comprises a bolt 14 extending in the vertical direction and pivotally secured in the shanks of the base portion, in which bolt a drawbar 15 is anchored and directed towards the locking portion 5.
  • the drawbar 15 extends in the locked position through recesses 16 and 17 in the web portions 8 and 9, respectively, of the base portion 4 and the locking portion 5.
  • locking means are provided in the form of pins 23 which, in locked positions, extend in inside the contour of the anchorages 21 and which are hereby intended to extend through corresponding openings in the tubes 22 so that these are impeded from both rotating and lifting.
  • the pins 23 can, in one embodiment, be secured on the handle 20 so that they are movable together with the handle in a pivotal, movement.
